Postponed Nava Kerala Sadas in Ernakulam Rescheduled for January 1-2
The postponed Nava Kerala Sadas in four assembly constituencies in Ernakulam district will now take place on January 1 and 2, following the unfortunate demise of CPI state secretary Kanam Rajendran. The public outreach programme, which concluded formally in Thiruvananthapuram on December 23, witnessed a delay in the scheduled programmes for December 9 due to the passing of the CPI leader at Amrita Hospital.
The rescheduled Nava Kerala Sadas for Thrikkakara constituency will be held at Civil Station Prade Ground, Kakkanad, at 3 pm on January 1. This will be followed by the event in Piravom constituency at KSRTC bus stand ground, Piravom at 5 pm.
On January 2, the meeting for Tripunithura segment will take place at Puthiyakavu temple ground at 3 pm, and at 5 pm, the event for Kunnathunadu constituency will be held at St Peter’s College ground, Kolencherry.
Participants at these venues will have the facility to file petitions three hours before the events start, with separate counters for women, people with disabilities, and elderly individuals.
The 36-day-long Nava Kerala Sadas, an ambitious outreach programme of the Left government in the state, faced opposition protests from the Congress and the BJP and their youth outfits. The Sadas, which commenced in the northernmost constituency of Manjeswaram in Kasaragod on December 18, concluded at Vattiyoorkkavu in the state capital, with Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan addressing a massive crowd.
